Power Outages Create Sewer Bypasses in Fairfield
Weather-related power outages have caused bypasses of sewage in at
least two eastern Iowa cities, the most serious occurring in
Fairfield. By
early Saturday evening, Fairfield was still without electricity.
Bypassing
of sewage was taking place in Crow Creek from pumping stations and
generators were being used to prevent sewage from backing up in the
plant.
So “bypassing” means that raw sewage is dumped into a creek? Where is
Crow Creek?
Right behind your house, Rick. And you wondered why you got such a
good deal.
Hopefully it's far away.
